Text Appearing Before Image:
eighty to a hundred individuals at Shulaif near Lakey. 278 GAME-BIRDS OF INDIA Genus PTEROCLURUS. The genus Pteroclurus is, as I have already said, scarcely worthyof division from Pterochs, the only difference being that the centraltail-feathers of the former genus are produced in long filamentsbeyond the other rectrices, whilst those of the latter are normal. There are altogether four species in this genus, which have furtherbeen divided into subspecies. Three species are found in India, ofwhich one, sencgalensis crlaangeri, is a permanent resident, one,alchata, is, practically if not wholly migratory, and the third,senegallus, very rarely breeds within Indian limits. Key to the Species. A. Lower plumage from breast pure white . .... alcliata. B. Lower plumage marked with black. ci. Middle of abdomen barred black and rufous .... senajalennis.h. Middle of abdomen black. a . Black gorget across breast senegalensis. b. No black gorget across breast senegallus. > X w a. / >>■
